With many of them jump ship to Fold 2..

what do you think about getting a Fold 1 at this timing when the price is more affordable now

Hmmmm with telco plan or no contract phone?

Got a lot of difference in pricing ... lol

hows the uag monarch case? is it good?
Better don’t
It will scratch your exterior case
I had mine but thankfully I got the screen protector. It only scratch the protector and not the phone

Ended using the leather case

Fold 1 is still good...somehow the screen is nice for gaming and videos...

Went to demo it at Samsung shop.. the screen is kinda fine for me outside but I realised what i would likely use is the flex mode..

I tried the flex mode, hinge really quite improved but I don't see myself using it in that mode often, the front screen is the big diff

the price is pretty decent now. The interior is good for watching show and surfing the net.

For the Fold 1, I'd had the UAG Monarch protecting it, no scratch on the front screen at all. I did have a film type SP on the front, but due to the fit, the film SP had very minute 'crumpling' (best word I can think of) so I got rid of it. No issue when I took to SES to assess...and they spend 20-30 mins examining my phone.

Anyone here activated your screen replacement ?

Excerpt from Samsung portal
"One-time screen replacement or repair is applicable to the internal, foldable screen of the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G, Galaxy Fold or Galaxy Z Flip only. Customer is liable to pay a deductible amount of SGD$200 for the screen replacement or repair for the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G and Galaxy Fold"

My fold 1 internal screen looks alright under normal lighting, however if examine closely there are unnoticeable light scratches.

Thinking of doing a screen replacement before my warranty ends in December 2020
